the group operating the Archives Center needs this information to garner continued
local support.

The Archives Center is located on
the ground floor of the 1914 Plant City High School. There is ample free parking
in short walking distance to downtown Plant City. The Archive Center is about
25 driving miles distance from the old Courthouse in Dade City or 16 miles
from the Zephyrhills City Hall.

The Archives Center contains holdings
of several thousand books, family, historical, genealogical and photographic
files, periodicals, newspapers, census, and records on microfilm and a large
CD database.

To highlight part of the collection:
There is a large collection of texts on Florida history and genealogy, but
there are also collections on the other states and many foreign countries.
There is a large collection of family histories. In addition, there is a large
collection of journals and periodicals from genealogical and historical societies
all over the country. The census microfilms are mostly of Alabama, Florida
and Georgia. On microfiche there is the Florida Death Index and old issues
of the Plant City Courier.

The Archives are not indexed on
a computer.
